Tecumseh motors are OK. When they are running right.

Mostly its carb issues. Same as you get with any mower that is gravity fed with no fuel tap.
I have one here on a Rover Rapid. Its sat for more than 3 months, prime and pull and off it went, just chuggin, took about 2 mins before it wound itself up. Runs fine now. lol



Theres all those different holes and stuff. Its a bit complicated. Best i can recall that motor was only found on Victas. And i think i have one here, possibly in bits. Will have a peak out the back.

The TSV90 was the common motor. Or is it TVS90.

The more Tecumseh's you can find to put in the big parts bucket the more fun you will have. I think i have run out of useable carbs.
